(After Thaal)
If it was firmly spoken to everyone that we need to tone this down in the interest of continuing the influx of new members, I think that would suffice, assuming everyone really understand that, like any website, the only way we can continue to play on this this site we enjoy is if it continually gets fresh blood coming in. Same goes for any game-like platform.
With Omni's emphasis on the newcomers, I understand the core point of his argument and agree that we need to not turn them away, I would however like to accomplish that without adding additional restrictions that to newcomers may seem like needed tyranny by the Mod Staff. These newcomers would not take the time to understand why such a rule was put into effect, so they could leave because of it.

(After Neal)
The Chatbox is a platform for our communication much like how we could interact if we were all to be together in real life, and with what Neal said in mind, it really should be handled more like that. You wouldnt hug someone without their permission, nor would you let someone hug you without permission. If we began to treat the Chat as we would real life interactions in this sense, maybe we could clear away some of the things people like Neal has felt when it come to being uncomfortable.

(After Omni)
I was not aware of those changes Omni, and whether i missed them in the course of this discussion, or I was not present before this when it was discussed. My arguments were in opposition of more extreme measure of censoring, so my apologies. Although I do feel my words have wait in a conversation about those thing.

We are Unbound and Limitless potential
Entomb in mongrel flesh and blood.
Imprisoned in a Cage
that Reduces us to that of a lowly
Human.
We will No Longer stand for such Treatment.
You know Nothing of Who we are;
of What we are.
